A woman was treated to an asphalt sandwich by an Atlanta police officer after prancing onto the tarmac and then trying to outrun the frustrated cop. Excessive force? Perhaps. But trespassing on an airport ramp is a serious offense.
Cop Takes Down Runaway Woman As She Sprints Past Spirit Airlines Plane At Atlanta Airport We don’t know quite why or how the woman got onto the ramp, but we can observe several things based on a pair of videos captured by ground staff:
* She’s talking to cops, then decides to skip away before breaking into a run
* She runs by a Spirit Airlines jet as a cop takes off behind her
* He stops her by pushing her over, sending her sprawling face-first onto the ground
* She is handcuffed
* A police car pulls up and she is placed into the backseat of the car (resisting arrest while being maneuvered into the vehicle)
Did she really think she would get away?
Take a look at this NSFW video (the ramp workers swear as the incident unfolds):

Here’s another angle.

Had the engine been on, the officer’s force could have saved her life (remember Courtney Edwards, a ground staffer who was sucked into the engine of an American Airlines jet last year in Montgomery, Alabama?). Maybe the officer could have stopped her more gently and reports of police brutality are nothing to laugh about, but I have a lot of trouble feeling sorry for her…she chose to take off (if you’ll pardon the pun) and that is just not something you do in the secure area of an airport, especially on the apron around aircraft.
CONCLUSION
Video shows an Atlanta police officer knocking over a woman who was attempting to flee around a Spirit Airlines aircraft in Atlanta Airport. I think it’s fair to discuss whether the specific application of force was necessary, but trespassing in a secure area and then running away from cops is just not a smart idea…
I noticed that. He’s good..............
Cheesed!
"You're F____d!"
She’ll just blame the racist cop!
She won free tickets to a Taylor Swift concert and decided to beat feet? I know I would.
I take the cop’s side on this. Running around on a jet ramp can get her killed, or if she drops debris or clothing that gets sucked into an engine, can get others killed. She deserved the faceplate and it may well have saved her life.
She could have gotten sucked into an engine..................or the cop.............
Agreed. Evidence of her recklessness is a very dangerous area, endangering the officers after her as well. No concern for anyones safety at all.
She is extremely lucky she was a woman. Cop woulda kicked the crap out of a guy.
She or the cop could have been sucked into a jet engine..................
Obstreperous.
I looked it up. It has nothing to do with strippers.
the best you tube ever
Or obstetricians.
She should be fine, it looks like an upgraded “bump” stop suspension system was installed.
My first thought was that she was creating a diversion of some sort, but maybe she’s just very foolish.
Obstreperous.

Oh, why xould you think it might?
I think it is more closely related to dinosorus era animals.
The Obstrepours - eats plants, has a loud voice, runs when persued.
Makes oil when dead and buried.
Who uses “obstreperous” when “unruly” will do?
drug user or mental patient or both
